Well, I don't know how much of this I believe, but the alternative was looking grim so this is considerably more organized than I would expect of such a situation. If people started coming through the hexgate from other worlds, the council would assume it was an attempted coup. I would spend the next six months assuring them that any interruption of trade was negligible and unavoidable. It's not like you can schedule these things.

Anyway, hello. My name is Mel Medarda. I would appreciate direction to the best wine in this strange city and a recommendation for a tailor. I don't know how far this foreign money will spend but I intend to make the best of it.
